84. 2Cent, ProfessorGAC, BigDaddyLove and Mixxter need to read ATLIEN
Atlien gets it about the most insightful and courageous comment in Sapp's speech (which you all had trouble getting):

Do we not have anybody that understands that there's way more scrubs in this game that are Anglos than there are black ones that are being pumped up?

Remember, Sapp isn't saying "Anglos are scrubs" - and Rush didn't imply "black are scrubbs" - so please don't try to say Rush and Sapp are two sides of the same coin. (They would have both been racists if this had been all they talked about. But it wasn't. They weren't saying which players were more likely to be scrubs - black or white. They were saying which scrubs were more more likely to be overhyped - black or white.)

Rush implied black scrubs get overhyped {by liberals}. Sapp pointed out that if you're gonna talk about which scrubs get overhyped, it's more likely to be Anglo ones rather than black ones.
